Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia: 1. That §29.1-345 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows: §29.1-345. Stationary blinds in the public waters for nonriparian owners. Unless a license has been obtained pursuant to §29.1-344, and
a stake or a blind has been erected and marked within the time stated as
specified in §29.1-344, in any year, the owners of riparian rights, their
lessees or permittees shall forfeit the privilege of licensing blinds on their
shores and also lose priority for licensing stationary blinds in the public
waters adjoining such shores. Any locations remaining in the public waters
shall belong to whoever first obtains a license and erects a stake or a blind.
